a great game if you're into having to think your way around a level, but you don't really like to think at all when it cames to play games, really fun, retro, arcadeish.
a must have!!!

I just can't make it start on my Linux Mint 13 KDE.
any way the game looks great but until the devalopers won't fix it its gets 1/10 from me.

My solution to get it work (Ubuntu 12.10): open AlterEgo.sh in gedit and "save as" it with line end setting "Unix/Linux".

I tried every thing that has been posted here, but it still doesn't work in my Ubuntu. I even tried to emulate it in Wine, still doesn't work :(
